I think it is very convenient/practical to have the recipes sorted by month. I also like that there are vegetarian and vegan options. I like the recipes, wich are original and sound delicious ! There are twists on "regular" recipes too, wich is refreshing. Reading the description I was expecting for some recipe to be rituals, or at least the magic properties of ingredients, it is not the case !
Now for some negative points, the design is bland and it really lacks images and/or illustrations. I guess for 10£ it's normal ? (I don't know what are the usual prices for cookbooks in the UK as I am French ^^). It also maybe lack of dishes (there are a lot of desserts and bread recipe, wich is great, but I would have like maybe more healthy meals).
I would recommend the book for the recipes but bare in mind that there are not a lot of complete and healthy lunches for example an that you are buying the book for the recipes and not the design wich is unappealing.
I'm happy to have discovered R. Patterson and her blog !

I'm sharing this right now on my bookstagram page @aprilsbookishlife and goodreads as well as my facebook group The Broom Closet Spiritual Learning Group where I also shared your latest blog post. I'll be slowly working my way through your book this week but I can already tell it's fantastic. Thank you Rachel, Moon Books and Netgalley for giving me the opportunity to review it.

The majority of the recipes in this book are for desserts and bread. I was hoping for easy to make dinners.
